Question

Viruses ________.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Viruses do not have the ability to manufacture their own ATP, proteins, and nucleic acids, nor do they metabolize food to produce their own ATP. Instead, viruses rely on the host cell to provide the resources needed for replication and protein synthesis. They use the host cell machinery to copy their genetic material and to make the viral proteins needed for assembly into new virus particles.
